GOING AND COMING .

A few thousand people who went to|
Western Kansas this year. says Web
Wilder in the Hiawatha World, will
also come back this year. The return
began over month ago.
There is no panic about it; no loud
talk; in fact, the returning wagons
and people attract very little attention.
There has been a general failure of the
corn crop in fifteen or twenty counties.
These people who are returning relied
wholly upon corn. They did not get
out west in time to put in wheat or rye.
They had no corn of any kind to carry
them through the winter. And so
they are quietly going back to "their
wife's folks, in Injeanny." This has
been done many times before, in Kan
cas- and all new States, and will keep
going on until every quarter section in
Kansas il, notSdeserted, but occupied.
The movers will find when they get to
Iowa, Illinois, Indiana and Michigan
that large portions ofthose States have
had O worse drouth than Kansas has
had. The weakened portion of them
will stay with their wife's folks; the
brave ones will come back next year.
find rain and wet enough to stay.
Kansas has passed the point where
the gain or loss Of five or ten Thousand
people starts ripple on the surface of
her calm content. We are sorry these
people have to 60 back, but we know
that brave men will fill their places.
Windmills, irrigation ,artesian wells
together with very much more rair
than we once believed they had. are
j now at home in all parts of western
Kansas. This "boom" year, although
suffering from dry summer, has seer
a great many young men and women
20 to western Kansas who will no
come back. They are not built tina
way. They are having an easier time
than their fathers had in eastern Kan
sas. There is now railroad in nearly
every Kaneas county. There is west
; ern as well as an eastern market. They
can buy coal cheaper than we could
. cut wood from the few trees thel
visible in eastern Kansas. They arr
. great deal nearer the store, the doctor
the church and the daily paper thai
we used to be. And they have jus
as much nerve. They can raise whea
} and cattle and potatoes. They ar
, adopting the northern short seasol
corn, and they are "going to make
lgo."
The last three seasons have been DIR.
ones in this part of the State. Mex
!. year it will be wet; too wet, probably
5 but we shall raise immense crops. Al
I tof the transitory "booms" will be ovel
: and well over, and railroad buildin
will reet for . time. But the next si
years will be the most prosperous tina
Kansas has ever seen. Hold on to you
farm. Don't sell your land. 1t is
Igold mine. These years of prosperit..

The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1887-10-29
HOW LORD DUNDONALD ES-
CAPPED FROM THE SPAN
ISH FRIGATE.

Lord Dundonald Chen known as Lord
Cochrane) was one of the bravest and
ablest OF the naval officers who playe a
part in the long war which ragged be-
tween England and France, and Spain,
in the end of the last and the beginning
of the present century. He showed so
much energy and application, which are
qualities quite as necessary to the sea-
man as physical courage, that six years
after he entered the service as mid ship
man he was appointed by Admiral Lord
Keith to the command of the Speedy,
then cruising in the Mediterranean Sea.
The Speedy was a rather unseaworthy
vessel, little larger than an average coast
ing-brig; she had scarcely room on
board for the crew considered necessary
in the time of war, and her armament
consisted only OF fourteen four-pounders
little better, a. the commander said,
than a row of blunderbusses. Not a
very tempting vessel, you will say, to go to
sea in, when the Mediterranean was tenn
ing with French and Spanish men-of-
war.
But one man can do with little what
another fails to do with much. Lord
Dundonald was not only very proud OF
his little vessel, but many fine adven-
ture he had on board of her, and very OBJ
noxious did he make himself to the ships
of the enemy, capturing those he was a
match for, overcoming by ingenuity even
those who were his superiors in strength,
and cleverly evsding, by many device.
those whose attacks he felt he could not
Withstand.
1t is one Of his devices which 1 am 60
ing to tell you Of now.
The Speedy had just succeeded in capt
uring French brig of four guns, and
after lying in anchor in Port Mahon for
couple of days, had put to sea again
when, ON the evening of the day on
which she left the harbor, she perceived
